personally, I would contribute willingly to increasing fuel prices if the profits were used to develop alternative resources. or, I would willingly pay a lot more for food if I knew it was helping poor families keep their means of living. but this just doesn't seem to be the case. someone's getting filthy rich with the profits they are getting off normal or poor people and THAT annoys me to bits.
